8-Bit LEGO Trip Video: Behind the Bricks

The Swedish band Rymdreglage’s music video ‘8-bit trip’ is a stop-motion homage to retro Nintendo video games created using only LEGO bricks.

The video took over 1,500 hours to complete, since each LEGO-constructed character needed to be moved around individually, then photographed. While the music video has been around for a little while now, this is the first time I’ve seen these behind-the-scenes pics:

You can find Super Mario, Yoshi, Pac-Man and a cast of many others in this great little video.
